I have had to do the same thing. I have also noticed if I don't run the config tool that it will max out one CPU core until I kill hplip or log out and sometimes have to kill hplip then. Recently, I have noticed I don't have to do that and everything works as expected. Sort of surprised really. I have got so used to redoing everything after a update.
